Prior to visiting Japan please install the following applications:

Mongering: 1. Line - This preferred chat application. Everyone uses it and that includes all shops, providers, grandpas, grandmas. 2. DeepL - One of the best translation apps, uses AI to aid with translations 3. Google Maps - Google Maps is good for public transit, trains, buses, ferries, etc. 4. X / Twitter - X / Twitter is how you find people often outside of websites. 5. Payke - scan the UPC of most anything in a drug store and it will tell you what it is and for OTC medications ingredients and dosage.

General:

  • JapanTravel - Trains Schedules and a touch better than google maps for buses. Emergentcy Alerts too.
  • NERV - Primary earthquake and natural disaster app. tied into the earthquake warning system you will get a 30 second warning before an earthquake.
  • Microsoft Translate - good for speech translatins
  • Google Translate on Android - if you have a android phone google reserves the better version of their app for android. Generally faster on android
